WAVES Singing Cymbals

Acoustic installation based upon movement feedback. It was part of the Sound Seeing Festival 2012 and was displayed at Kunsthaus Kloster Gravenhorst in Germany. In the cellar space of the former monastery, we tensed 3 sets of strings between the massive columns, each consisting of a string with piëzo and a shaker. The movement feedback causes the strings hanging down from the long strings to move as well, making the clothespins at the end 'dance' on the cymbals that are on the floor.
The feedback is controlled by an arduino driven controller especially designed and built for us by MAD Foundation in Eindhoven.
